'Illl'KSDAY, M\V 11, iK^O.
M e have received information,
the authenticity of which cannot be
fjuestioncd, that "the Provisional
(Jovernment of t't'c Constitutionalists
<it lsla (the head quarters, J have in
their ('uzette formality acknowl
J DUED THE INDEPENDENCE OF SOUTH
AMERICA !"
It is (rue that this act is liable to a
i consideration when the national
government shall be established?
nevertheless tlfc fact is sufficient to
convince us that a further prosecu
tion of the war in South America is
iiot die wish of the people of Spain
-?and that the government will he
i Jiiuenced in future hy the wishes of
the people there can now he no doubt.
V> e are even ready to believe that
!?' Hie Constitutionalists are disposed
( > make terms wiih Ferdinand at all.
t*ue ot the stipulations will be the
*u k m, w ledgeim* n t of the indepen
dence of the South American colo
. liies.
M e can also state, positively,
unit orders have been ^i\en at .Mad
fid to dismiss all the transports so
Ion- employed at Cadiz. Thus is
flll idea of the expedition to South
America officially abandoned.

"\\ q have had the pleasure of a
*!fovf conversation witli Captain Mou
ris, ot the United States Frigate
Constellation , who arrived in this
^ fi')' j'Mletdty, iVom Norfolk, from
V^vhom we have gathered the follow
(ring particulars : .
Captain Morris leftjlife citv of
Buenos Ayres ou tfcel^th of Febru
ary last, and brings verbal intelli
gence us to that date. In conse
quence of party dissentions, which
had rose to a great height at Buenos
Ayres, the Puerrydon party had
been deprived of the direction ofaf.l
fails, ?nd a new administration or-J
gnnized, (hough without any parti-|
cular acts of violence ; that the sev-|
eral provinces of wliicb this vast re
public was composed, viz ; Uuenos
Ayres, Paragua, Cordova, Cuyo,
Tucuman and Salta, had each for
med a separate government, similar!
to our state Legislatures, determined
to act for themselves ; though when
the present agitMion subsides, it is
thought a confederation will be for-|
med of the whole, under a general I
fovernraent. Meanwhile Puerrydon,
^-President, and the secretary of
'itate, Mr. Tagle, in order to es-l
cape popular resentment, had fled
over to the Jiortugtiese, at Monte
video, Whose interest thejr had loug
been suspected in promoting to the
prejudice of the republicans.. -Nei-|
tlier party _had come to terms hut
were negotiating for that purpose. I
Artigns yvas still at the head of
Ins horsemen and combatting against
the Portuguese with success, "fiSHl-l
ing the Banda Oriental, and two orl
tfiree other provinces, ] believed to be!
?fcntre Bios, Corrientes, and Santa
ree.
No danger was apprehended to
the real prosperity of the republic
from these changes ; on the contra
ry it was thought from each assu
ming a share of responsibility in the
government that the permanent Iriter-I
ests of this great republic would be
benefitted. The whole of this vice-l
royalty was supposed, tinder the
Spaniards to contain near 3,000,000
or souls. I
No news from the Chilian fleet,
commanded by Lord Cochrane, nor
has any particular mention been
made of Gen San Martiu to us ; but
the Carrert* are s?M to have been
placed at the hefcd of the govern
ment in Chili. . ?* ? e l
Nothing particular had occured
?hrnng the cru,/.e ofCaptain Morris.

1 he intelligent reader will recoiled
that there has long existed a deadlvl
animosity between the Carreras ntwil
Ariigns parly and thc ndminisdatioi |
' 0 x
of Piirrryilt.il ; and that no *3brL?
have been spared to destroy each
other. Ho hi^h, we are told, was
popular indignation roused against
Puerry don and his srcretary, _Tagle,
that ili^ht into the hands ofl+tfir sop
posed enemies, was the only resource
left to preserve their lives? a revolu
tionary occurrence quite unexpected
after their having fcnjoyed so long
and so large a share of popular favor.

tion which threatens the repose she
has enjoyed. The measures pro
posed by the French Ministers to
the Chambers, in consequence of the
late assassination ? and which*, go to
the, abridgment ? f personal liberty,
freedom of discussion, And the elec
tive franchise?- -were opposed *vith
great boldness and open menace;
and our country's old friend, La
Fayette, had reappeared in the, tri
bune, and pronounced a law which
had just passed, the revival of the
old hettres de cachet . The press,
too, had taken high grounds; and
placards were posted up, it is said,
in numerous places, calling od tlic
people to rise in defence of the Con
stitution, and the rights of the press
and the citizens, timer a 1 Sehasti

arbitrary governments JHK werc

lived in Turkey, and has there seen,
in the space of two years, two Sov
ereigns and eleven Ministers perish
in popular convulsions. The King,
however, continues to receive tokens
of love and respect ; and \ ivacity is
a characteristic of all Frenchmen.
Spanish Cortes.? The Cortes of
1812 was composed of 104 members.
By the constitution of that year, a
population of 70,000 is entitled to n
member. Estimating the population
of Spain at 10,000,000 the next
Cortes may contain 142. They
meet annually? and have power to
originate, make and repeal all laws ;
to decide on the succession to the
throne; to approve of treaties; to
forbid foreign troops entering Spain ;
to prescribe the strength of the army
and navy ; to im|>ose ail taxes ; to
protect the liberty of the press ; and
U> Enforce Ministerial responsibility.

by Medical men, as a remedy in a number;
of common and troublesome complaints? I
It 13 a complete remedy against sourness)
of the stomach, commonly called heurt~\
burn , and in most cases, of indigestion and
weakness of the stomach, it is very useful ;
gradually restoring the appetite, and with
it the tone of that organ-it is a preventative
of many of the diseases of the stomach ai>d!
bowels, which proceed from acidity ; and)
for the same reason it often removes and J
prevents the sn.k i.iuuacne. As a pallia-)
tive, and even a remedy, in some cases, ot
urinary calculi and gravelly complaints, it
is preferable to the baiUtcn waters ? it may
prevent, arrest, retard or remove com
plaints, according to circumstances.
"SODA WATER is also a very re
freshing and grateful drink, especially after
heat and fatigue, and may be made a com
plete substitute for the beverage of which
ardent spirits fo ms a part."
